Hi,

I downloaded the example code Gurux.DLMS.Client.Example.VB. I am using VS 2017. When I open the project, it says "The system cannot find the reference specified GuruX.DLMS" for GuruX.DLMS. I went into "My Project" then "References". I added the "GuruX.DLMS.dll" file and yet this error persists. Can someone advice how to resolve this?

Much appreciate.

Hi,

You need to install nuget.org for VS 2017. That will download all libraries automatically for you.

BR,

The system cannot find the reference specified GuruX.DLMS

It is the same problem. I downloaded the nuget.org version 4.7.1. When I run the example client vb program, it is the same error message.

How can I specifically solve this?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Do you have the latest version from the source code? I just try and it works without problems.
You can try this:

Select project file. and press right mouse button. Select "Manage Nuget Packages.." from the pop-up menu. Update all references.

BR,
Mikko
